https://www.pices-journal.com/ojs/index.php/pices <p>The "Perspectives in Communication, Embedded-systems and Signal-processing" (PiCES) focuses on the latest innovations in the modern fields of Wired/Wireless communications, Embedded systems inclusive of robotics and also signal processing designs in both the Analog and Digital domains. The journal also encourages environment friendly and green approaches to common day scientific problems. The journal is a monthly online open access series indexed in the most popular indexing agencies and libraries across the world.</p> Neelkanth Kashyap and WorldServe Online en-US Perspectives in Communication, Embedded-systems and Signal-processing - PiCES 2566-932X https://www.pices-journal.com/ojs/index.php/pices/article/view/393 <p>Diabetic Retinopathy is often noticed in individuals suffering from diabetes. The major characteristic of this disease is the presence of exudates in the retinal area. These exudates can be scanned using fundus imaging. The aim of the project is to develop an algorithm that can identify exudates in fundus images, and based on the area, prescribe medication using the concept of content-based image retrieval. The algorithm will be developed on MATLAB and also be downloaded on a Spartan 3e FPGA.</p> Anand M Meenakshi Nandini Rao M Varsha H N Yashaswini H Copyright (c) 2022 Perspectives in Communication, Embedded-systems and Signal-processing - PiCES https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2022-08-05 2022-08-05 6 4 19 22 10.5281/zenodo.6969918 https://www.pices-journal.com/ojs/index.php/pices/article/view/320 <p>Pest infestation is one of the major challenges by farmers. If these pests are not controlled, they can cause threat to harvest, thus generating a huge loss for the farmers. Thus, pesticides have to be supplied to plants. However, extensive usage of pesticide can cause adverse effects on a human’s life when the harvest enters the food chain. Thus in order to curb the extensive usage of pesticides, we propose a pest obliteration system that captures real time video of plants; if pests are found pesticide is sprayed, else the robotic prototype will keep moving until it find the pest on plant.</p> Vandana Shree J S Ayaz Pasha S Copyright (c) 2022 Perspectives in Communication, Embedded-systems and Signal-processing - PiCES https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2022-08-05 2022-08-05 6 4 23 24 10.5281/zenodo.6969951
